Science, Creation & EvolutionRadiometric Dating.......DMP In Genesis 1 we see this outline : vs 1, summary of the creation event. vs 2, a description of the perspective of narration. God is narrating, NOT, from Heavens perspective, but from "hovering above the face of the earth". vs 3, Lights were formed, and set in the firmament. This occured long before the 4th day. On the forth day, the light 1st became visible to an observer who was narrating from the perspective of 'hovering on the surface, looking up". Dont mistake that in Genesis 1:3, the lights were already there. In recognizing early primordial atmospheric conditions, we know that early earths atmosphere was opaque and would totally block the sun and moon. Only after dissapation of the primordial atmosphere, would the 'sun and moon' be visible. This does not mean that they were just formed at that time. Proper exegesis needs to understand the verb tenses in Hebrew, and the word used in day 4 for creation of the sun and moon, can be a past tense verb. Or denoting something that has already happened. Understanding the perspective of narration is critical to understanding Genesis 1, and the creation event. The laws of physics are set up so that this universe is finite and will end. I am sure that is all in Gods plan. God bless. |
